System Description GEMINI SL Total Knee Replacement The LINK GEMINI Total Knee Replacement, including implants and system-specific instruments, is part of the LINK SL Knee Family concept. SL stands for System-integrated SoLution One implant system for standard implantation and revision Essential criteria for obtaining good results in knee arthroplasty are long-term fixation, anatomically correct implant components and a reproducible implantation technique. The LINK GEMINI SL knee implant for cementable or cementless primary replacement of damaged knees combines tried-and-tested and innovative design principles. The design of the femoral and tibial components and a wide choice of sizes ensure primary stability. The tibial components are available with either a Mobile Bearing or a Fixed Bearing. The optimal surface texture and our TiCaP double coating Titanium (Ti) / Calcium Phosphate (CaP) provide secondary fixation for cementless implantation. 02
System Description GEMINI SL Total Knee Replacement Flexibility The resections made for GEMINI SL Total Knee Replacement allow the surgeon to switch intraoperatively to the SL rotating hinge or hinged knee implants and to use the MEGASYSTEM-C variants if indicated, with the aid of just a few additional instruments, because each knee system within the SL Knee Family is compatible with the very same bone resection (see page ). Modularity The GEMINI SL product range guarantees optimal compatibility and is an excellent treatment option for the patient. A uniform femoral component for Fixed Bearing and Mobile Bearing and a different femoral component for Fixed Bearing PS (Posterior Stabilized) are available. A compatible PE articulating surface must be selected in each case. This gives the surgeon great intraoperative flexibility. The GEMINI SL system caters to a range of femoral and tibial dimensions in general, the femoral component of the same size or one size er than the tibial component is used. Femoral Components A major contributing factor to the long-lasting function of the GEMINI SL system is the frictional connection between the fixation surfaces and the resected femoral condyles, and also the external form of the femoral component, which is designed to replicate the anatomy of the knee and implant function. The high patella shield prevents the patella from clicking in cases of patella alta. The anatomically shaped patellar groove provides for physiological tracking of the bony patella or patella resurfacing component in all positions. The femoral component comes in two variants for cementable or cementless fixation. Accessories Indications Index Instruments Implants System Description Literature Contraindications 03
System Description GEMINI SL Total Knee Replacement The PS (Posterior Stabilized) design with its secure coupling mechanism prevents femoral ventral subluxation in flexion in the absence of the posterior cruciate ligament. This design consists of a posterior post on the tibia and a stabilizing bar (cam) on the femoral component. The special design of the intracondylar box geometry in the femoral component allows for bone-sparing resection. Tibial Components The GEMINI SL tibial components are adapted to the anatomy of the tibial head, and and variants are available. The central taper and the bars radiating out toward dorsal have been shown in various tests* to protect against shear forces, rotation and, above all, the alternating varus/valgus loads that cause loosening. The tapered pegs at the ends of the bars transmit forces laterally into the load-bearing cortical bone. The product line with SpheroGrip permits tibial replacement with a monobloc tibial component. The integrated stem shape ensures a high degree of stability. The concave surface of mobile bearing tibial plateau (A) provides congruency of the articulating surfaces in extension while allowing the femoral condyles to glide in increasing flexion. Distribution of the load over a area reduces polyethylene wear. The rotating articulating surface separates function from movement in the articulating areas, enabling the soft tissue structures to take over motion control, which allows for natural kinematics. In addition, the implant fixation is spared. The deep trough in the tibial plateau stabilizes the knee, even in cases of posterior cruciate ligament deficiency.** A * Fabriciani C. et al.: Total Knee Arthroplasty, Tibial Components: Design and Surfaces, Cementless Arthroplasty, M.

System Description GEMINI SL Total Knee Replacement In cases of good joint stability, where the ligaments and capsule are intact, a tibial tray with a replaceable fixed bearing PE articulating surface is available (B). Note: The size of the tibial plateau is determined primarily by the femoral component. In the absence of the posterior cruciate ligament, function is assured by the post coupling mechanism. This induces mechanical rollback while preventing dorsal subluxation of the tibia. Ventrally, the PS (Posterior Stabilized) polyethylene articulating surface (C) has a deep cutout to give the extension apparatus enough space in flexion.

System Description GEMINI SL Total Knee Replacement Anchorage The bone-contact surface of the implants is optimized to suit the individual type of anchorage (cementable or cementless). Cementable Anchorage - SpheroGrip The unique macrostructure provides an optimal interface between bone cement and implant. The shear and rotational forces transmitted into the bone cement are reduced, thus ensuring stable long-term anchoring of the implant. SpheroGrip Cementless Anchorage SMS + TiCaP The bone contact surfaces on the tibial and femoral components have an SMS (Squarical Monobloc Structure) honeycomb macrostructure for cementable fixation. For cementless fixation, implants with TiCaP double coating Ti tan (Ti)/Calcium Phosphate (CaP) are available. This double coating creates an outstanding potential for biological exchange between bone and implant surface. SMS + TiCaP 0
System Description GEMINI SL Total Knee Replacement TiCaP Double Coating: Titanium (Ti)/Calcium Phosphate (CaP) The TiCaP coating is applied to implants by first spraying a highly porous layer of titanium approximately 200 μm* thick onto the surface of the implant using vacuum plasma technology. On top of this porous surface, an approx. 20 μm** thick layer of mechanically stable calcium phosphate is deposited in an electrochemical process, which promotes ingrowth into the open-cell titanium layer. Animal experiments have demonstrated ingrowth on.9% of the implant surface.** PorEx (TiNbN = Titanium Niobium Nitride) Surface Modification The PorEx hypoallergenic surface modification leads to a ceramic-like surface, which significantly reduces the release of ions and can improve tolerance in patients who are sensitive to metal. 1 This surface is extremely hard and possesses abrasion properties similar to those of ceramics. These qualities and the wetting angle of the surface give it a low friction coefficient when in contact with fluids. 1 1 Internal technical report. 2,000x 400x * The thickness of the titanium layers varies in different types of implant. ** Cunningham HB.W et al.: General Principles of Total Disc Replacement Arthroplasty, Spine, Vol. 2, No. 20 Supplement, 2003 Accessories Indications Index Instruments Implants System Description Literature Contraindications 07

System Description MIT-K Minimally Invasive Technique Knee Accurate and preserving Precise, tissue-sparing implantation The success of total knee arthroplasty depends upon: Correct alignment of the leg axis Good soft-tissue balancing Stable primary fixation of the implant The MIT-K Minimally Invasive Technique Knee presents a tissue-sparing surgical technique for implanting the GEMINI SL prosthesis via a incision. This leads to less blood loss, both during and after surgery, while preserving muscles, tendons and ligaments. The risk of infection and embolism is reduced, wound healing is improved, and the patient recovers faster. Navigation The LINK GEMINI SL Total Knee Replacement is navigable with the imaging-free navigation BLU-IGS (Orthokey). The newly developed, state-of-the-art instrument set and the optional computer -assisted navigation system BLU-IGS facilitate precisealignment of the axes and positioning of the resection guides. The instruments are compact, so they do not impinge on surrounding soft tissue. These features enable the surgeon to ensure that the patient gets the maximum life from the artificial joint, optimal implant function, and the minimally invasive technique provides short convalescence.

Important Information Please note the following regarding the use of our implants: 1. Choosing the implant is very important. The size and shape of the human bone determine the size and shape of the implant and also limit the load capacity. Implants are not designed to withstand unlimited physical stress. Demands should not exceed normal functional loads. 2. Correct handling of the implant is very important. Under no circumstances should the shape of a finished implant be altered, as this shortens its life span. Our implants must not be combined with implants from other manufacturers. The instruments indicated in the Surgical Technique must be used to ensure safe implantation of the components. 3. Implants must not be reused. Implants are supplied sterile and are intended for single use only. Used implants must not be reused. 4. After-treatment is also very important. The patient must be informed of the limitations of the implant. The load capacity of an implant cannot compare with that of healthy bone! 5. Unless otherwise indicated, implants are supplied in sterile packaging. Note the following conditions for storage of packaged implants: Avoid extreme or sudden changes in temperature. Sterile implants in their original, intact protective packaging may be stored in permanent buildings up until the Use by date indicated on the packaging. They must not be exposed to frost, dampness or direct sunlight, or mechanical damage. Implants may be stored in their original packaging for up to 5 years after the date of manufacture. The Use by date is indicated on the product label. Do not use an implant if the packaging is damaged.. Traceability is important. Please use the documentation stickers provided to ensure traceability. 7. Further information on the material composition is available on request from the manufacturer.
